Happy Monday! Happy Monday ANYWAY! What’s your ANYWAY today? For the joy set before you as scripture says, you will ENDURE this and that, too. Jesus was our example as He endured the cross for the joy set before Him ~ us! We were the joy set before Him. In all that anguish, you were […]

Seasons change.  Kids grow into men and women. Azaleas fill most streets and yards in Mobile, AL in the spring. Yet we got a text from a friend who had snow in Oregon just the other day. We are all in different seasons of life at any given time. What connects us?  Thank God for holidays! […]
